Overweight for years. A sports scientist. I really should practice what I preach!

Update

I am now just 5lbs away from 13 stone, 3 stones lost in 22 months.

I can't say it has been difficult or that I feel I have been dieting for ages, as it hasn't and I haven't! I have eaten less on 2 days of any week I have felt up to it and eaten what I wanted if I haven't.

No guilt as I spent decades gaining the weight and want this to be a lifestyle change rather than a quick loss and fight to maintain. I am happy that this is doable forever. I may even be in maintenance early next year - my target is Valentine's Day, but I'm not really banking on it. I'll get there when I get there.

So, 2.5lbs down this week and about 1 - 1.5 stones to go before I have hit a reasonable target weight.
